Regulation of SNARE assembly by protein phosphorylation
Protein phosphorylation is emerging as an important regulatory mechanism that controls the secretory pathway. It enables coupling between the... -
Inositol hexakisphosphate primes syndapin I/PACSIN 1 activation in endocytosis
Endocytosis is controlled by a well-orchestrated molecular machinery, where the individual players as well as their precise interactions are not...

Phototropin2 3’UTR overlaps with the AT5G58150 gene encoding an inactive RLK kinase
BackgroundThis study examines the biological implications of an overlap between two sequences in the Arabidopsis genome, the 3’UTR of the PHOT2 gene...
-
LRRK2 phosphorylation status and kinase activity regulate (macro)autophagy in a Rab8a/Rab10-dependent manner
Mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 ( LRRK2 ) gene are the most common genetic cause of Parkinson’s disease (PD), with growing importance...
-
Casein kinase 2 modulates the spindle assembly checkpoint to orchestrate porcine oocyte meiotic progression
BackgroundCK2 (casein kinase 2) is a serine/threonine-selective protein kinase that has been involved in a variety of cellular processes such as DNA...

VRK1 promotes DNA-induced type I interferon production
BackgroundType I interferons (IFNs) are an essential class of cytokines with antitumor, antiviral and immunoregulatory effects. However,...
-
LRRK2 is involved in the chemotaxis of neutrophils and differentiated HL-60 cells, and the inhibition of LRRK2 kinase activity increases fMLP-induced chemotactic activity
BackgroundNeutrophils depend heavily on glycolysis for energy production under normal conditions. In contrast, neutrophils require energy supplied by...
